Tumor necrosis factor superfamily ligand mRNA expression profiles differ between humans and mice during homeostasis and between various murine kidney injuries.
Article in Journal of biomedical science, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundSeveral tumour necrosis factor (TNF) based therapeutics have already been approved for human use and several others are emerging. Therefore, we determined the mRNA expression levels of the TNF superfamily ligands (TNFSF) - e.g. TNF-α, lymphotoxin (LT)-α, LT-β, Fas-L (CD95-L), TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), TNF-related weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK), 4-1BBL, OX40-L (CD252) and amyloid precursor protein (APP) in healthy human and mouse solid organs.
methodsWe used quantitative real time-PCR to analyse mRNA expression levels of TNFSF ligands. Murine models of acute ischemic renal injury, chronic oxalate nephropathy, and immune complex glomerulonephritis were used. Renal injury was assessed by PAS staining, and infiltrating immune cells were analysed by immunohistochemistry. Data was analysed using non-parametric ANOVA (non-parametric; Kruskal-Wallis test).
resultsWe observed significant differences in the mRNA expression levels of TNFSF ligands in human and mouse solid organs. Furthermore, we determined their mRNA expressions during acute and chronic kidney injuries in mice. Our data demonstrate that the mRNA expression levels of TNFSF vary depending on the type of tissue injury - for example, acute ischemic renal injury, chronic crystalline nephropathy, and immune complex glomerulonephritis. In addition, we observed that mRNA expressions of TNFSF ligands are differentially regulated during the course of a transient ischemic renal injury (IRI) and chronic kidney modelling. We observed that TNF-α, LT-β, and 4-1BBL were significantly upregulated during the progression of IRI and crystal-induced chronic kidney disease (CKD), whereas only 4-1BBL and TNF-α were significantly upregulated and LT-β was significantly downregulated during the progression of immune complex glomerulonephritis. The mRNA expression of Fas-L was higher during IRI whereas it decreased in a time dependent manner during the progression of crystal-induced CKD.
conclusionWe conclude that the injury- and species-specific differences of TNFSF ligands must be considered in order to avoid the misinterpretation and wrong conclusions during data extrapolation between species.
